AbstractThis research investigated how a leadership team enacted wellbeing promotion in a Catholic Preparatory to Year 12 all-girls school using the Growing Inclusive Wellbeing 12 Pathways Model (GIW-12P). This qualitative case study purposively selected participants (n = 25) and collected data over an eight-week period using surveys and semi-structured focus group discussions. Thematic analysis was conducted in four phases with three key findings. Firstly, the GIW-12P as a tool proved highly effectual as a model. Secondly, applying the model surfaced areas of effectual wellbeing promotion while also illuminating gaps in practices and drawing attention to areas for further action. Thirdly, the “how” of the application surfaced as an opportunity for school-wide collaboration linked to core beliefs and quality outcomes for students, teachers, and all participants. Using the GIW-12P model provides new knowledge to policymakers and researchers in the field of practice. When collaboratively used as an analysis tool, the GIW-12P created an intersectionality with the concept of wellbeing within this community. When applied by a team to investigate wellbeing promotion, the GIW-12P surfaces information key to effective decision-making for leaders regarding the utilisation (i.e., allocation and deployment) of human and financial resources and educational policy to drive school-wide wellbeing promotion.
